“Charleston” – Texas Ten (1925)

A rough start for this beat disc (with a repaired crack, no less) – but it cleans up after 10-20 seconds of sizzling bacon.

Another fun version of “Charleston” by Nathan Glantz and friends (here curiously under the alias of Sam Lanin’s band). They recorded a different take on the same day issued under a different matrix for Pathé-Perfect.

Recorded in New York City on May 5, 1925.
Originally issued as Banner 1540, Bell 351, Domino 3510, Oriole 413 and Regal 9835.
Reissued as Silvertone 2493 credited to “Lanin’s Roseland Orchestra”.
